Package: grub
Version: 0.97-22
Followup-For: Bug #158901

I'd suggest to provide a patch that documents how you specify
the relevant install devices.  Patching manpages is easy. The
names of the devices are also quite clear.

zcat `man -w grub-install` > /tmp/grub-install.8.orig
cp /tmp/grub-install.8.orig /tmp/grub-install.8
vim /tmp/grub-install.8
diff -u /tmp/grub-install.8.orig /tmp/grub-install.8
